Andi Kleen has a patch in his x86_64 tree which enables the use ofi386 dmi_scan.c on x86_64. dmi_scan.c functions are being used by thedrivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c driver for autodetecting the ports ormemory spaces where the IPMI controllers may be found.

This patch adds equivalent changes for ia64 as to what is in thex86_64 tree.
